Abstract

A recording apparatus includes a body, an operation panel provided on a front surface of the body, a feeding cassette that accommodates sheets, removably mounted with respect to the body from the front surface of the body, and is configured such that a part thereof is protruded from body in a state of being mounted on the body, a recording section that is disposed inside the body and performs printing by ejecting ink onto a sheet transported from the feeding cassette, a discharging tray that is disposed on the feeding cassette and supports the sheet after printing is completed, and a body-side cover section that is provided in the body and covers both side surfaces of the feeding cassette. Then, when viewed from a right and left direction, a first farthest section that is positioned in the farthest position from the body in the feeding cassette in a front direction is separated from the body in the front direction further than a second farthest section that is positioned in the farthest position from the body in the operation panel in the front direction.
